The Value of Love for Nature

The aim of this research is to propose a set of educational activities to strengthen the value of love for nature in secondary school students in the Alto-Hama Municipality. We observed that the moral personality related to love for nature was not being realized in the best way, due to teachers’ limited knowledge of environmental problems and the lack of systematic activities at school that help to awaken this value in students and, consequently, in the community. In the meantime, a diagnosis was made based on the application of a questionnaire, the sample of which was made up of the directors, teachers and students of the Liceu 11 de Novembro in this municipality, which revealed the need to overcome the shortcomings observed. The analysis of the literature consulted made it possible to establish the foundations of the process of forming values, especially the value of love for nature. Therefore, as a contribution to the solution of the problem investigated, we propose a set of educational activities for the formation of values, to be carried out mainly through extra-teaching activities.
